BF2S Forums Official Mass Shooting & Suicide Bomber thread

I also believe the generally hierarchal thinking of white conservatives is also a contributing factor. Too many think they and their community are special because the global order, for a time, was dominated by other whites. I think a lot of young white men absorb the thinking that they are special, denied a birthright, and all of their problems are the result of other people.

I enjoyed the Halloween movie but I now realize that there is a media super structure around making people feel like it is okay to kill people who slightly wronged you. I don't think we will be able to root it out since that pity machine prints money.

In the new Halloween movie a 21 year old white nerdy engineer guy with a shitty personality from the start accidentally kills a child and gets acquitted by a jury for it. He then spends the rest of the movie being bullied by the townspeople until he eventually builds himself up to take revenge on all of the people who wronged him by brutally murdering them.

This is incredibly problematic.

This movie promotes the idea to young white guys that the way to rise above the hardship that normal fucking people just power through everyday is by killing all of the people who wronged you. The Joker movie has this same problem though it also had a message regarding poverty and mental illness.

There is a lot of media that does the same thing. Breaking Bad for instance is another show where the downtrodden nerdy white guy gets revenge on all of the people who wronged him. Once you notice this sort of story framing the popularity of this sort of pity party media becomes disturbing. Crazy knowing that there are people who watch this stuff, get gassed up, and then do something evil to people who deserve a dressing down and not a brutal murder. And the media really shouldn't promote this idea.

I

imagine a black wedding like that. it would make fox news.

The guy who livestreamed him shooting up a supermarket in Buffalo plead guilty to state charges. 10 counts of first degree murder among many others.

The fact that the guy went there to smoke black people isn't the disturbing part to me since mass shootings are now a cross cultural thing. You get shooters of every race targeting whatever their preferred target group is. What annoys me about this story is that this guy was flagged for serious mental health struggles in high school and his family still thought there was no problem with him owning a lot of guns. This happens again and again with these mass shooters.

Making gun ownership part of political identity has been a disaster for Americans. And it is mostly a thing for conservative white Americans much to their own detriment. A lot of conservative white Americans don't take mental health seriously while also raising gun ownership to be a fundamental part of who they are. And it is resulting in their young becoming radicalized killers and their old putting guns into their mouths. A bizarre situation and I see no reflection on it from conservative media.
